Are you ready for this weeks challenge? Dont commutes just stink. If you live in a city and groan every time you think of your daily commute you understand. I was on my commute the other day and realized I spend that time in usually a ugh kind of mood. But I turned and looked and a lady in the car next to me was laughing hysterically to something. It made me start to chuckle. It made me think about how we dont take the time to admire the beauty and joy around us. Do you ever stop and look around. To see the kids giggling outside. To see the sweet couple still in love. To enjoy the sunshine or wind in your face. To see the beautiful flower or tree while youre out an about. Take min each day and find something that makes you smile. Dont forget to look around and smell the roses and share with us what you enjoyed this week.

So the challenge this week: Take time each day to look around and find beauty and joy as you go through your day. Are you up for the challenge?

@Autismaunt14 I'm so glad you'll be more aware this week. One simple moment can really remind us of the beauty in the world. Last night I saw an elderly couple. Both in wheelchairs at dinner with the son who was older as well. He was spoon feeding each chocolate ice cream. It was a beauty reminder of love.
